Author: Delia Owens
Genre: Fiction
Kya was abandoned by everyone she had loved, one by one they left her. It was the marsh that became her family. She knew every inch of the marsh and rarely bonded with anyone more than the gulls. She was labeled the "Marsh Girl" and outcast from society. When a the local star quarterback is found dead with what looks like a murder cover-up the townsfolk immediately accuse Kya. Will their prejudice condemn her to life in jail or even death?
This book has vivid descriptions of the marsh and thoughtful portrayals of what it is like to be an outsider. I would recommend this book to anyone who hasn't read it yet.
